It depends on what is wrong with the G5... it might be worth it to repair it and wait for another round or two of MacPro's. > > (dual g5, 3 GB ram, 2 HDs...) > new mac pro? config? > thanks in advance. > best > tv Where are you located?

I agree. I changed from G5:2x1.8 to Intel:4x2.6, and notice little difference. Apple always updates things - eventually. So you might skip a round. The only thing is that the G5 will drop in value more too. You can also wait until new Mac Pro's are released then get a good deal on a used model of the current intel mac which will be much lower too. > It depends on what is wrong with the G5... it might be worth it to > repair it and wait for another round or two of MacPro's. > ************************************** See AOL's top rated recipes (http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?NCID=aoltop00030000000004) [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
